Kerby Joseph just made history—signing a massive new deal that makes him the highest-paid safety in the NFL, cementing his rise from draft afterthought to defensive superstar.
Detroit Lions Subtly Address Jameson Williams Trade Rumors with Social Media Post
The Detroit Lions didn’t have to say a word to make a statement — and it looks like they made a big one.
As rumors swirl around the future of wide receiver Jameson Williams, including speculation that he could be on the trade block, the Lions responded in the most subtle way possible: by simply posting a photo.
Trade Talk Meets a Smile
It all started when Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer mentioned that some NFL insiders believe Williams could be traded, especially with the Lions facing a fifth-year option decision on the former first-round pick.
“Receiver’s another spot to consider — with a fifth-year option decision coming on Jameson Williams, and some in NFL circles believing he could be traded,” Breer wrote.
That line sent the rumor mill into overdrive, and Williams himself added some social media fuel with cryptic Instagram stories that had fans and media reading between the emojis.
But the Lions? They stayed quiet — sort of One Photo, A Thousand Interpretations
On Wednesday, the team posted pictures from voluntary offseason workouts, and guess who was front and center in the first photo?
Yep — a smiling Jameson Williams.
Take this for what it’s worth, but I would like to believe this is the team putting something out there that says, “We are all good with Jamo!”
What It Might Really Mean
Williams broke out in 2024, tallying over 1,000 yards and finally showcasing the explosiveness Detroit hoped for when they drafted him. Whether or not the Lions ultimately pick up his fifth-year option (valued at $15.4 million) is still TBD, but showing him off on their social channels says a lot.
Even if they aren’t saying it with words.
